Doh - so simple!  

I vote for this ... until we have a true, backward compatible
IPE-WYSIWYG = In Place Editing, not in a subsequent window, What You See
Is What You Get, in other words, click and start editing IN PLACE
anything you see on a wiki page.

The color idea is probably still not section 508 compliant (see
http://www.section508.gov/index.cfm?FuseAction=content&ID=12 and so on),
but it would be a super simple aid to novice - and well practices -
editors, nonetheless!
